Wow. I think I want that on vinyl.

yea it's great

I'd expect a band called Electric Youth to have bad artwork but...wow

xps yeah the YOB is frameable imo, love it

Apparently it was done by Relapse's normal in-house guy, Orion Landau

agreed, it's beautiful

i have thought about framing that daniel bachman "orange co. serenade" cover and putting it up somewhere

http://f1.bcbits.com/img/a2341113543_10.jpg

The 60s/70s retro-horror/Satan/occult thing is fairly well played out, but I guess that's well done. More importantly I checked out their bandcamp and the music's pretty great.

My thoughts exactly. Fastnbulbous to thread!

I get the feeling I'm the only person excited for this album (or for Julien Ceccaldi) but:

So, so bad :-(

It is terrible, yeah. The shadows are from the cover of his previous album. Dunno what it means.

that is a jazz police among record covers

xxp Kind of a cover connection with the new Electric Citizen album:

Pink FLOLoyd

wow

haha for i actually googled "Pink FLOLoyd" thinking it was some new corny new band a la com truise, joy orbison or dananananaykroyd or some shit

^ me too

Never realized until now how many of their post-Waters releases feature a horizon line on the cover.

Haha Marcos <3

C'mon, it looks like the cover of a children's bible. Lill babby Jesus rowing o'er the clouds.

a creaky old punt - maybe it's a reference to roger waters

lol @ floyd

feel like I saw that as an illustration in one of the Narnia books

Oh my god that Pink Floyd cover.

This Odawas cover... I feel like I've seen more or less this same thing fifty times.

Paglaira cover I totally like, though!

It gets better (Floyd cover):

Responding via email, Eldin described the inspiration behind his design: “Thinking about life and nature and what is beyond the world of charming factors we have never seen is enough to create millions of different amazing feelings.”

“First, I draw a sketch for what is in my mind, then I start to simulate the sketch and the idea with real images, and that’s called photo manipulation.”

I just heard Aubrey Powell Pinks long time "style director" describe choosing that cover like he'd found an uncovered Da Vinci

Boat needs a tiger in it.

i suppose there are a few similarities between it and the cover of atom heart mother - lack of text, a dreamy pastoral sort of scene, horizon bisecting the image... i reckon if you superimposed the two and shifted AHM slightly to the right, it would look just like the guy in the boat was sticking his paddle up the cow's bumhole - surely a great metaphor for the new record?

The Floyd one is off the scale gross.

the search for cuddlestein mountain

millions of different amazing feelings
